1958 Map of Spurger

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

The Neches River winds through this East Texas landscape, marking the boundary between Tyler, Jasper, and Hardin counties during the late 1950s. The region is defined by a sparse settlement pattern centered around small communities like Spurger and Fred, where life was anchored by local institutions such as the High Sch and Beech Creek Ch. The geography reveals a heavy reliance on the land's resources, with several oil developments including the Joes Lake Oil Field and Jackson-Doty Oil Field dotting the terrain. Natural features like Maple Slough and Sally Withers Lake emphasize the river's influence on the low-lying basin. Notable for local history, the map preserves the locations of family-associated sites and rural landmarks like the Withers Cem and Cunningham Chapel, alongside vestiges of former timber operations indicated by the Old Railroad Grade.
